There are many ways to travel from one place to another. I like it nice and slow ;)
Instead of a 75-minute flight, I decided to spend 17 hours on a ferry boat sailing from Copenhagen to Oslo.

When the airplane glided above Øresund towards the Copenhagen Airport in this rainy morning, about a dozen of gigantic wind turbines greeted us. The airport, in spite of a strike, was crowded but orderly. I made my way into the city without much trouble.
I had about 33 hours in this city and I had no plan except knowing where I was going to sleep for the night. Having only slept 3 hours during the flight and now wandering along the waterfront in the rain after dropping off my luggage, I was deliriously excited.
The Royal Library. The Parliament. Christiansborg Palace. I was just a giddy tourist in Queens’s Reception Room!
Snow is on the ground now. Two weeks before Christmas. 2013 is almost gone. I am embarrassed about asking you to stay tuned and not being able to write about my trip for so long.
Yes. The trip to Scandinavia did happen in September. Those 7 days were wonderful.
Here is my itinerary: I landed in Copenhagen at 7 AM on September 2nd, took an overnight ferry boat from Copenhagen to Oslo the next day and arrived in Oslo in the morning of the 4th.
